This is not a exposure of the Grand Canyon . Or any other canon on Earth . But it ’s in our planet . It ’s the winner of the 2011 edition of FEI ’s electron microscope image competition .
It is a gaining control of the cracks of a alloy bit , after the a bending test failure .
trope taken with electron microscope — like theNova NanoLab DualBeamused for this pic — are in bleak and livid . The ensue images can then be colored , often to spotlight feature film that are useful for researchers or just for merriment .
The image of the crack was colored by Martina Dienstlede , from the Institute for Electron Microscopy at the Graz University of Technology .
2d place : Capillary meshing of an alveola show the erythrocytes within the profligate vessel .
Third place : Forepart of a mite .
Like most electron microscope images , these winners are beautiful and defy belief . I care I had electronic microscope vision build - in .
